Research Publishing and Impact guide

OUR Archive: Otago's institutional repository

Otago's institutional repository OUR Archive (Otago University Research Archive), offers long-term safe storage and managed access to your work, while allowing you to track how often it is viewed and downloaded. Depositing your manuscript here means you'll be complying with MBIE's Open Research policy. Your research will also be visible to a wider audience because it can be found by Google and Google Scholar.

For information or advice on uploading your research to OUR Archive, contact ourarchive@otago.ac.nz
